July. The egg is of a light green color, and finely reticulated, 
and is somewhat broader than high; the apex is slightly flat- 
tened. On July the sixteenth the larvae emerged from the 
egg. The body of the larva twenty-four hours after hatching 
is of a yellowish green, and is sparsely covered with yellowish 
hairs. Head and collar shiny black. Larvae moulted for the 
first time on July twenty-sixth. A few hours after moulting 
the body of the larva became a light green. 
15. Pamphila aaronii. 
Brought home from Anglesea, New Jersey, on June the 
twelfth, three females of this butterfly. The eggs were laid on 
the thirteenth of June. The egg is slightly wider than high, 
and of an opake white color, finely reticulated, and the apex 
is slightly flattened. Eggs hatched on June twenty-sec- 
ond. The larvae when first hatched have the body the same 
color as the eggs, but twenty-four hours after starting to eat 
the larvae were of a greenish drab color, otherwise I notice no 
change in the appearance of the larvae. First moult occurred 
on July the first; twenty-four hours after moulting the larvae 
assumed a beautiful, light green color; all the legs are the same 
color. This species is strictly a maritime one, being very com- 
mon on the salt meadows of southern New Jersey. The spe- 
cies is double-brooded, the first brood being at its height about 
the fifteenth of June, and the second brood about the fifteenth 
of August. It is often found in company with P. panoquin, 
both species having the same habit, and both appearing on the 
wing about the same time. The August brood of both these 
species will outnumber the June brood by ten to one. 
16. Pamphila fusca. 
A female secured on August the seventeenth deposited eggs 
the same day. The egg is shiny, pearl white, and not opake 
white as is so often the case with the eggs of Pamphila. The 
surface of the egg is very finely reticulated, and the apex of 
egg is decidedly flattened. Eggs hatched on August the 
twenty-seventh. The larvae when first hatched are of an 
opake white color. Head and collar very light brown. This
